source released - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

Samsung has posted the i317 source on their opensource website....
Just to prove how desperate for a real challenge I am, I think I might go ahead and sell my n7100 and do dev on the i317. I just hope doing a US-only variant will keep 15 year old kids (wait, he's 16 now) from stealing my work and taking donations for it.
That, by the way, was the major reason I've backed off from doing open development over the past couple months. The fact that XDA seems to be supporting that kind of behavior has only discouraged me further.

I've been there. Had a guy steal my entire rom, change the name, a few images and pawn it off as his own. Only found out because another member alerted me. However in my case, thread was locked and infraction given.
It sucks when people take advantage of us like that Gary. However I for one am glad you picked the 317 :good::highfive:

About time..lol...I knew it would be quick...

In desperate need of any ROM for i317. Soft bricked my phone via installing Chainfire3D.

This is uncomfortable:

I've _never_ been one to ask someone to hit the 'thanks' button, but I'd really appreciate if someone could get that counter to tick to another number. Not to thank the post or stroke my ego, but to just change the number.
Thanks

There you go, but can't help with black cat...
Thanks

Can someone explain what this exactly means. I've read that Samsung is just releasing minimal stuff and saying they are being supportive of development. I'm thinking about switching to the Note II on Friday from ATT SGS3, but I am scared of it having an exynos processor and not have much rom support.

DAGr8 to the Note 2? Could it be?

I have seen posts from DAGr8 that has led me to believe he has done some research on the Note 2 and it's exynos processor. I am trying to get him a Note2 so he will come aboard. Check it out HERE

[Q] MIUI....anyone run this through a microscope?

I started hearing about the ROM over on some Dell Streak blogs and had a thought I was worried about...but wonder if I am just being paranoid.
Where is MIUI from? Is this in some actual consumer phone that is on a major network? Has anyone actually met these people that wrote this?
I see on their website that they are working with some of the devs here and supposedly have submitted the FM app to Cyanogen:
http://www.miui.com/thread-1687-1-1.html (Not much more than that page unless you can read Chinese which I cannot.)
I guess my paranoia sets in when I see things come out like this fully baked and being adopted blindly by the masses. We saw games just last year that were doing random calls and that was from a site people trusted.
Sorry if this seems tinfoil hatty, but really what better way to sink a trojan/backdoor into a ton of phones than to release a super cool looking bit of software that no-one is really going to dig through and vette? So my question is do people here really trust this software? Have the Dev's torn it apart enough to feel they know everything in it?
It's an AOSP-based ROM developed by some Chinese folks to make their phones into KIRF iPhones.
I at one point thought the same thing about it. I thought about where it came from, and all the jazz with the same paranoid mindset. Then I thought about it more, and realized I wouldn't be doing anything on my phone that would be of any interest to anyone. I'm sure its probably legit. There are other poeple that have had to go through and port it to English and more fun stuff. I would assume they have taken a decent look at it.
Just like that live wallpaper with the malware in it, I'm sure someone will find a rouge code. Im sure it will be viral too as apple fanboys would jump all over it discrediting Android. But to be on the safe side, I'd only use ROMs from here and other trusted dev forums, from devs with a good rep. At least you'll know its honest work.
Yes, you're being a bit "tinfoil hatty." Google MIUI dev and you'll see the english forum from xda members that are dedicated to this rom's development. I'm sure that they have broken down most of the rom and you can get more information there.

I how you' re trying (unsuccessfully) to be funny. Here's a newsflash, there are android geeks, honest ones even, all over the world!!
Really, if the Chinese were trying to gather information via some device that millions upon millions of Americans would use (and no, that would not be the MIUI on Android), they would probably tap the ipod, iphone, and ipad - all of which are made in China.

Take it easy algorhythm. That may have been for the I9100, but this is for the Telus (and presumably Koodo) T989D: http://www.telusmobility.com/en/ON/Software-Updates/schedule.shtml
Pretty sure someone already linked this via MobileSyrup. The schedule does only indicate the "expected" date (Feb. 2013) , but 4.1 is nearer than ever before - maybe less than a month away.

You are posting in the SGH-T989 forum, buddy.
You should have posted in this forum.
You are seriously getting pissy at me because I called you out for posting bad information that is not relevant to our devices. Do you not understand how you are wrong?
um yeah. there is a sticky for JB news. this thread should be closed

Seriously thinking of giving the phone back

As I'm within the 28 days to exchange.....I've kind of had it with fancy phones and might go for a cheapy and get most of the money back, they wont like it but hey ho
Cool story bro
EDIT: But seriously, WHY do you hate the phone? I have a One X, I hate the way its designed and the battery life. I don't like the phone but atleast I know WHY I don't like the phone.
Maybe the reasons you don't like it can be fixed with a better ROM or something?

I would - I moved mine on to my wife who isn't fussed about custom/boot images/s-off/super-cid/flashing radios etc
I'm back using my Sensation and that's fancy enough for me for now. For me its better to have my modding freedom back.
And yeah - there is something to be said for saving thr £500 a high end phone costs. The functionality of a Desire C say is really the same at a lot less.
Agree wish I still had my Desire instead of all the risky business that is installing roms.

Stu, no offence but just ignore trolls.
By saying "I wonder how many other "useful" (ONE L!) posts there are"
This is just going to make people not want to help you. Considering XDA is one of the most useful, if not THE most useful forum for not only Android but devices such as the Raspberry Pi.
If you don't find this forum useful, why come here and tell all us useless users that you "Thinking of giving it back". Why do we need to know that?

Ignore trolls? The forum is messy enough but he decided to start a new thread to tell everyone that the phone is **** and he's giving it back. What is the purpose of the thread? I know i should of just ignored it but its [email protected]!king irritating. Wants locking.
no one wants to know that you want to give the phone back tell it someone in your family or so...but that's really the MOST useless thread here on xda...REALLY ...why the f*ck do you open such a thread, but nobody wants to know that? ....like cjm1979 said...NO purpose in open this thread...

Does any one know when the 4.3 Leak will get here for T-mobile galaxy note 2. i see the one in the AT&T forum. just wondering how long before we get this Leak
no firm dates but rumor has it between now and the end of the year..
Already a thread for this here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2458581
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
that post was over a month ago. i posted after seeing the actual Leak for ATT that just came out. sorry for the double post
At this point I've about given up. Not upset by any mean but come January I'm jumping to the nexus 5. Too bad the note 2 is awesome

If the Note 2 is really that awesome as you call it, why jump ship? Heck why worry about the software update at all?
Just saying. It is a great device but i wont ditch it just because an update takes a while.
I have a HTC One, Nexus 4 and Note 2.
When i put 4.3 on my HTC One i made that my primary phone. When the Note 2 gets 4.3 ill make that my primary for a while.
Guess that sounded disgruntled. Sorry bout that, didn't mean to come off that way.
It's just that I've had android since cupcake and the longer I continue with android the more I realize one of my favorite parts is the expedited progression of it. Over the years I've become quite find of the updates. I guess you can say it's become something I look forward to. It's not that I loath this device by any means but my preference is leaning towards the update facet of it. The only logical conclusion to meet my happiness is climbing aboard the nexus train.
Why is the right door always locked?
That makes more sense.. I was like, whoa, this guy thinks the phone is awesome why is he jumping ship. LOL.
I think im in a unique position working in the wireless biz fixing / repairing them and buying and selling them. .
Im looking forward to my Note 2 getting 4.3. Im actually going to make it my daily phone for a week just to test it out again. My Nexus 4 was my daily phone as well till i put 4.3 on my HTC One.. Its a natural progression.
Now i see your whole statement in a different light, less angry and more hey time to try something different..
Nah.. not angry in the least. I think I'm just ready for a change of pace that's all.

[q] [we need a sph-l710t complete section]

I would like to ask XDA and its crew for a new section thats for the SPH-L710T Tri-band model. Yes there are some great threads on the model but when clicking on the SPRINT Galaxy S3 its mainly for the SPH-L710 model. I really would love to see the Tri-band have its own section. Not just a thread or two with everything thrown in it. It can get some what confusing. Alot of people are getting the Tri-band models and I would love to see its own section as a whole not just 2 main threads and everything thrown in it. Im sure other XDA members would appreciate it also. This is just a question/thought to please think about adding a SPH-L710T section...... PLEASE AND THANK YOU The more feedback from other members with this model might help. Leave your thoughts about this please to see if we can get it going. Just some food for thought. Either way I love this community and respect everything about it and everyone in it! no matter what comes from this
def agree lets get our own section for this model would make our lives a lot easier
Yes this is much needed. Thanks to all contributors.

As someone using a Boost variant, and apparently going to have a hard time doing anything with it (especially with something like putting it on Ting), I'm putting my vote in on this.
